Flowify APP Terms of Use
1. Scope of the Terms of Use
(1) These Terms of Use apply to the use of the APP FLOWIFY AI (hereinafter referred to as APP).
(2) These Terms of Use explain all rights, obligations, responsibilities, and details regarding the provider's services. Use of the app is conditional upon the user's acceptance of these Terms of Use. If the user accepts these Terms of Use by ticking a box after first opening the app and continues to use it, a contract for the use of the app is concluded between the user and the provider. The user may terminate this contract at any time by uninstalling the app from their mobile device.
(3) The currently valid terms of use can be accessed and printed at any time in the app.
2. User account
(1) To create an account, a user account is required. This consists of an email address and a password (“login data”). To create an account, the user needs a valid email address to which they can receive a verification code. They must provide this email address when creating the account. They will then receive a one-time code to verify their email address, which must be confirmed in the app.
(2) The user warrants that the data used in creating his profile (“profile data”) is accurate and complete.
(3) The contract language is exclusively German.
(4) The provider does not charge you, the end user, any fees for using the app, its content, and its functions.

(3) The provider strives to ensure the uninterrupted operation of the app. This is naturally limited to services over which the provider has control. The provider is free to restrict access to the app, in whole or in part, temporarily or permanently, due to maintenance work, capacity issues, or other events beyond its control.
4. User's duty to cooperate
(1) The user undertakes to comply with applicable law (e.g. criminal law, competition law and youth protection law) when creating and using their own content and not to infringe any rights of third parties (e.g. name rights, trademark rights, copyright rights and data protection rights).

(6) The provider expressly points out that GPS reception may be disrupted inside buildings or vehicles, and that in areas with weak mobile network coverage, GPS reception may be disrupted or even impossible because the GPS receiver cannot send a position report. Disruption of the mobile network and the GPS receiver can also be deliberately caused by jamming devices. This can make it difficult or even impossible to determine your location.
(7) The provider accepts no liability whatsoever for insufficient mobile network coverage, disruption or interruption of the mobile network and/or the GPS receiver or transmitter.
(8) While the provider makes every effort to keep the app virus-free, it does not guarantee that it is virus-free.

However, the provider assumes no guarantee or liability that the app, the underlying software, and the information, data, texts, graphics, images, and videos provided may be downloaded and accessed in other countries. If the user accesses the app, its functions, and content from countries other than the Federal Republic of Germany, they are responsible for complying with the applicable national law. Access to the app, its functions, and content from countries where this would be illegal is prohibited.
(10) Furthermore, any liability, in particular not limited to consequential damages, is excluded unless the provider is liable under the Product Liability Act, for intent or gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health of a person, for the assumption of a guarantee, for the fraudulent concealment of a defect or for the breach of essential contractual obligations (cardinal obligations).
